Lane-Moynihan Funeral Directors

Words cannot express how thankful our family is with the way you took care of Dad. You are all wonderful people and will hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you is not enough.

Thank you for outstanding service. We appreciate everything you did, and thank you to Lilly for her contribution.

It’s taken me far too long to say this, but I would like to thank you for your professionalism and compassion in handling the remains of my father. Coordinating services between two funeral homes was extra stressful. I’m glad that at least one of the homes was honest and forthright. Central Chapel has my utmost gratitude and so do you.

Thank you for everything you did to make Uncle’s wake and funeral beautiful. Everything was perfect and we deeply appreciate the floral arrangement and the flowers in the bushes outside his apartment.

Thank you again for all your time, kind words and efforts that made everything run so smoothly. You are an extremely kind man.

Thanks to Bob and Ann for all you have done! We will forever think of you.
Thank you for all your help upon my brother’s passing. Your care, concern and sympathy has helped us during a difficult time.

Thank you for your kind words and all you both did for our mom’s wake and funeral. Thank you for such a beautiful picture made of our mom. It was a heart warming surprise.

Thank you both for everything. Glad I picked your place for my father!

We were very happy and satisfied with all of the arrangements. Everyone of us received compliments on the services.

Thank you so much for helping us and working with Catholic Charities to reduce cost during this difficult time. Your staff was very caring and understanding, never felt any pressure.

Thank you for everything - you made what could have been a complicated event, very simple. Even the dog was comforting for me.

Very professional, outstanding service, loved the privacy!
